Description
We are daily exposed to a multitude of health hazardous airborne particulate matter with notable deposition in the fragile alveolar region of our lungs. Hence, there is a great need for identification and prediction of material-associated diseases, currently hindered due to the lack of in-depth understanding of causal relationships, in particular between acute exposures and chronic symptoms. By applying advanced microscopies and omics to in vitro and in vivo systems, together with in silico molecular modelling, we have here determined that the long-lasting response to a single exposure can originate from the interplay between the newly discovered nanomaterial quarantining and nanomaterial cycling between different lung cell types. This new insight finally allows us to predict the spectrum of lung inflammation associated with materials of interest using only in vitro measurements and in silico modelling potentially relating outcomes to material properties for large number of materials thus boosting safe-by-design-based material development. Because of its profound implications for animal-free predictive toxicology, our work paves the way to a more efficient and hazard-free introduction of numerous new advanced materials into our lives.

Description
Objective: Physical exercise and vitamin E are considered effective treatments of nonalcoholic fatty liver and other metabolic diseases. However, vitamin E has also been shown to interfere with the adaptation to exercise training, in particular for the skeletal muscle. Here, we studied the hypothesis that vitamin E also interferes with the metabolic adaptation of the liver to acute exercise.

Description
Background/aims: Serum concentrations of the hepatokine fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 21 are elevated in obesity, type2 diabetes, and the metabolic syndrome. We asked whether FGF21 levels differ between subjects with metabolically healthy vs. unhealthy obesity (MHO vs. MUHO) opening the possibility that FGF21 is a crosstalker between liver and adipose tissue in MUHO. Furthermore, we studied the effects of chronic FGF21 treatment on adipocyte differentiation, lipid storage, and adipokine secretion.

Description
substantial number of people at risk to develop type 2 diabetes could not improve insulin sensitivity by physical training intervention. We studied the mechanisms of this impaired exercise response in 20 middle-aged individuals who performed a controlled eight weeks cycling and walking training at 80 % individual VO2max. Participants identified as non-responders in insulin sensitivity (based on Matsuda index) did not differ in pre-intervention parameters compared to high responders. The failure to increase insulin sensitivity after training correlates with impaired up-regulation of mitochondrial fuel oxidation genes in skeletal muscle, and with the suppression of the upstream regulators PGC1 and AMPK2. The muscle transcriptome of the non-responders is further characterized by an activation of TGF and TGF target genes, which is associated with increases in inflammatory and macrophage markers. TGF1 as inhibitor of mitochondrial regulators and insulin signaling is validated in human skeletal muscle cells. Activated TGF1 signaling down-regulates the abundance of PGC1, AMPK2, mitochondrial transcription factor TFAM, and of mitochondrial enzymes. Thus, increased TGF activity in skeletal muscle can attenuate the improvement of mitochondrial fuel oxidation after training and contribute to the failure to increase insulin sensitivity.

Description
Reprogramming offers the possibility to study cell fate acquisitions otherwise difficult to address in vivo. By monitoring the dynamics of gene expression during direct reprogramming of astrocytes into different neuronal subtypes via the activation of Neurog2 and Ascl1, we demonstrate that these proneural factors control largely different neurogenic programs. Among the cascades induced, however, we identified a common subset of transcription factors required for both Neurog2- and Ascl1-induced reprogramming, and combinations of these factors comprising NeuroD4 were sufficient to generate functional neurons. Notably, during astrocyte maturation REST prevents Neurog2 from binding to the NeuroD4 locus that becomes then enriched with histone H4 lysine 20 tri-methylation.

Description
BACKGROUND. Dietary intake of saturated fat is a likely contributor to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and insulin resistance, but the mechanisms that initiate these abnormalities in humans remain unclear. We examined the effects of a single oral saturated fat load on insulin sensitivity, hepatic glucose metabolism, and lipid metabolism in humans. Similarly, initiating mechanisms were examined after an equivalent challenge in mice.

Description
Dieting is a popular yet often ineffective way to lower body weight, as the majority of people regain most of their pre-dieting weights in a relatively short time. The underlying molecular mechanisms driving weight regain and the increased risk for metabolic disease are still incompletely understood. Here we investigate the molecular alterations inherited from a history of obesity. In our model, male HFD fed obese C57BL/6J mice, were switched to a low caloric chow diet, resulting in a decline of body weight to that of lean mice. Within seven weeks after diet switch, most obesity associated phenotypes, such as body mass, glucose intolerance and blood metabolite levels were reversed. However, hepatic inflammation, hepatic steatosis as well as hypertrophy and inflammation of perigonadal, but not subcutaneous, adipocytes persisted in formerly obese mice. Transcriptional profiling of liver and perigonadal fat revealed an upregulation of pathways associated with immune function and cellularity. Thus, we show that weight reduction leaves signs of inflammation in liver and perigonadal fat, indicating that persisting proinflammatory signals in liver and adipose tissue could contribute to an increased risk of formerly obese subjects to develop the metabolic syndrome upon recurring weight gain.

Description
In contrast to mammals, zebrafish has high capacity to regenerate tissue architecture and replace lost neurons after traumatic brain injury. The ependymoglia cells react to the injury and generate new neurons, which migrate to the lessoned site and contribute to the tissue restoration. Understanding molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying this regenerative neurogenesis is the crucial step towards achieving regenerative therapies in the mammalian brain. In order to identify molecular pathways governing this mode of restorative neurogenesis, we analysed changes in the transcriptome of ependymoglia cells and their progeny during regeneration process and identified Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) to be involved in regulation of ependymoglia differentiation towards post-mitotic neurons.
